'Zootopia 2' Tops North American Box Office with $26.3M

Zootopia 2 earned $26 million domestically in its third weekend and crossed $1 billion globally, while Ella McCay opened at $850,000, well below projections.

  • On Friday, Zootopia 2 led the domestic box office with an estimated $26 million weekend and crossed $1 billion worldwide after 17 days.
  • With no major new wide releases, a quiet pre-Christmas weekend left holdover films to dominate box office rankings, despite Zootopia 2's third-Friday gross falling to $64 million.
  • Second-Place Five Nights at Freddy's 2 posted a $5.6 million Friday gross and is pacing a second weekend $20 million estimate, bringing a 10-day domestic total near $95 million.
  • Newcomer Ella McCay opened to just $850,000 from 2,500 theaters, well below $4 million projections against a $35 million production cost, with weak PostTrak and Rotten Tomatoes scores.
  • The sequel's global haul positions Disney as Zootopia 2 nears $250 million domestic and $1.1 billion worldwide by Sunday ahead of Avatar: Fire and Ash's holiday corridor arrival.
